The
Urbanization Puerto Calero On the
south coast of Lanzarote between Puerto del Carmen and Playa Quemada (see map),
there is one of its most interesting sights: The urbanization and marina Puerto
Calero, one of the world's most modern and exclusive yacht harbours, named
after their creator José Calero, and in short called 'Puerto Calero'.
In 1983, he had the idea of creating an exclusive living space, consisting
of a marina, a residential area and a golf course.
The construction
works started in 1986 - and already in 1989 the urbanization was opened.  His dream had come true: there was the
marina with 220 berths and the most modern technical facilities, including a dry
dock with a crane, and there were 32 elegant villas on 1.000 sq. m. plots
each, as well as a number of apartments!
The villas and the
apartments had been designed by the famous designer Luis Ibañez,
who is living in Lanzarote.
